0:00 Introduction

1:53 Will we be naked in heaven?  

8:42 Are there any ways that you observe American masculinity norms would benefit from a more diverse cultural perspective?

12:47 Who do you think wrote Hebrews?

14:20 What is your view of David and Bathsheba--rape rather than consensual? Couldn't she have resisted?

16:52 I am happy and flourishing in our church. My spouse is not. What do we do?

19:20 John 15:3...we're not called to be like Christ in this way right? What are your thoughts?

23:22 Do you have suggestions for how to talk to a spouse who gets hostile with key topics when genuine curiousity increases tension and elicits confrontational responses?

27:55 Old earth or young earth?

30:11 Thoughts on Luigi Mangione and the national response? Babylon seems like they want to free him. Is motive important?

33:13 Solomon's great wisdom didn't help him in the end. Shouldn't we read it through the lense that Solomon wandered from God?

36:51 Leviticus 17 prohibits eating blood. Jesus tells us to drink his blood. Can you reconcile this?

38:16 How did Christ's incarnation, death and resurrection change anything besides the need for the sacrifice? There's still so much injustice and suffering in the world.

42:08 "Leadership" has different secular and biblical meanings. Does the word "authority" differ in the Bible as well?

45:43 The new church I attended had a kids service with raffle and door prizes--it felt "icky." What are your thoughts?
